About Serrano ham

Serrano Ham, a staple of Spanish cuisine, is a dry-cured ham traditionally made from white pig breeds. Renowned for its rich flavor and delicate texture, it undergoes an extended curing process, lasting anywhere from 7 to 24 months, which enhances its depth of taste. Nutritionally, Serrano Ham is a good source of protein, vitamins B6 and B12, zinc, and iron, contributing to muscle growth and immune health. However, it is also high in sodium and contains saturated fats, which should be consumed in moderation. Its low carb content makes it a popular choice in low-carb or ketogenic diets. Enjoyed in tapas, salads, or paired with fruits like melon, Serrano Ham reflects the vibrant culinary traditions of Spain. Carefully balancing its consumption can allow you to savor its unique qualities while maintaining a healthy diet.
